Top or lst(bend over)

This is a clone with uneven nodes. It’s about 11 inches tall. Would you top it or just bend over at this point? My thoughts are to top at the 3rd uneven nodes but not really sure what’s best.

I've had hit or miss luck with topping clones and their uneven nodes. Now I just let it grow until I'm happy with the secondary bud sites height and then supercrop the main cola down to their height about a week before flip. It recovers fine and no worries about topping a clone and how it will react.

Oh interesting. I already topped one of them. What happens when you top them young?

They're clones so they have the same age as the mother you took them from. I didn't get the typical double branching structure that you get topping a typical young plant with even node spacing. It bushed out and was fine but it just doesn't seem to be as reliable as super cropping the main as far as results.
